Small rooms when it matters. Big singalongs when it lands.
Why the run feels different
The new show opens wider, but keeps the edges sharp.
New visual production, heavier low end, and a setlist that lets the quieter songs breathe before the room gets lifted again. The record gets the close-up. The live show gets the release.

Album campaign
"Neon Afterglow" is the cleanest the band has ever sounded without losing the bite.
Written between overnight sessions in Leeds and borrowed rooms in east London, the record keeps the scale of pop but lets the cracks show. It sounds expensive in the right places and gloriously overdriven everywhere else.
“A huge chorus band that still knows how to leave bruises in the mix.”
The Quiet Room
“Velvet Static turns synth-pop sheen into something stranger and more human.”
